2980-2990 24th St, San Francisco, CA 94110

The property at 2980-2990 24th Street is a 3-story, 10-unit multi-family residential building constructed in 1989, currently owned by the Alan P. McCarthy Living Trust. The building has undergone numerous renovations and improvements over the years, with significant recent work including the installation of a new fire alarm system in 2020 ($18,000), most recently upgraded in March 2023 to meet current safety standards, and the addition of low-frequency sounders for occupant notification.

The building's history includes several instances of unit modifications and compliance issues, particularly between 2006-2008, when unauthorized unit conversions and construction work were reported, including the creation of living space in former storage areas and the installation of unpermitted bathrooms. These violations were ultimately abated by July 2022. The property has experienced various maintenance and safety-related issues over the years, with recent concerns in 2024 including reports of rodent infestation and multiple garbage collection complaints.

Historical complaints show patterns of unauthorized construction work, particularly during 2009-2010, when several violations were reported regarding window replacements, interior modifications, and restaurant-related improvements. The building's commercial space has been subject to multiple compliance issues, including a vacant storefront violation in 2022 and past fire code violations related to the restaurant exhaust system and hood maintenance. Recent improvements include the proposed installation of AT&T's telecommunications equipment on the roof (currently on hold), new ADA-compliant facilities, and various interior upgrades to individual units. The property has shown ongoing efforts to address safety and compliance issues, as evidenced by the recent fire alarm system upgrades and the resolution of historical violations through proper permitting and inspection procedures.
